    I was just looking at my sidebar gadget and it showed my ram usage at 46%.
    I have nothing open besides the sidebar and RocketDock. I closed RocketDock to see how much ram that uses, and it didn't make a difference. I was just wondering where that ram is going to. When I upgrade to 3gb, that ram usage should go down right? Thanks guys.

    EDIT: I had a 1gb SD card in their for ReadyBoost, I just disabled it and took it out, and ram usage went to 45%. WTF LOL.
